Understanding political science statistics : observations and expectations in political analysis af Peter Galderisi (Bog)

Observations and Expectations in Political Analysis

Summary: "Any student can learn the basic concepts of statistics if they are introduced as solutions to particular problems, and not formulas with a life of their own. In this text, students are introduced to a problem, asked to consider, conceptually, how one would address that problem, and then led through the derivation of the appropriate statistical formula. This applied method of teaching statistics through political science examples allows students to see the research method as problem solving.
